And see, Malkut is the end of Atsilut/Emanation and the beginning of Beriah/Creation, and it is to Beriah as the En Sof [is] to Atsilut, and the last degree that is in Beriah [is] to Yetsirah/Formation as Malkut is to Beriah, and this is their order until their coming to the celestial spheres/planets by way of the steps concealed and hidden for us, but revealed to the experts on the Work of Creation and the Work of the Chariot.

And see, there is no difference between Malkut [of Atsilut] and Beriah except as the difference that exists between cause and effect, and with descending from the last degree that is in Atsilut, it is necessary that it is the beginning of Beriah which is the degree that is unifying with Atsilut as the unification of the effect to its cause, and similarly from Beriah to Yetsira and similarly from Yetsirah to Asiya until the celestial spheres/planets.
